the reason i'm flying is that my dad can get those flights for free. yay air points racked up from rediculous amounts of international business trips.

Originally I didn't want my parents using their points for my flights. but they insisted, told me they had WAY more points than they knew what to do with (my dad flies out of the country pretty much every week, he has a lot), and seeing as how their moving and renovating our new house, they wont have time to take a vacation, so I accepted. Plus, this way I get as much time to travel around the north island freely before I have to be in wanaka for job interviews, if I took a bus that would knock off a lot of time.
